Reviews for Everyday Witch A to Z Spellbook
8 ratings1 review
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Eh is vague but has some cool ideas. I really hate the old ideal that you can "backfire" spells. Yes focus is key but this isn't a jinn in an old fairy tale. The items for each spell are very minimal and with no explaining why you would use them for most part. But it does give you a lot of diffrent ideas and spells for just about anything. Not your basic spells for love. Money, or the like.

Introduction
Why write another spellbook? After all, aren’t there already enough books out there with spells for love, prosperity, and protection? Well, yes, there probably are. And some of them are even quite good; if you look, you’ll find quite a few on my own bookshelves.
But the modern Witch is concerned with a lot more than love and prosperity. Today’s Witch deals with everything from family drama to weight issues to concerns with fertility. You’re not going to find spells for those in your average spellbook—but you will find them here.
This is a spellbook for the everyday Witch: the one who lives their Pagan beliefs all day, every day, 24
